About Mangrove Snakes

Posted by 4m4t3ui2 on March 07, 2003 at 10:11:50:

Does anyone here know or heard anything about Mangrove snake before?
I saw one at a pet shop and asked the owner about it and he told me it was a snake with little poison that can barely harm human. It was black in color and have yellow stripe on the sides.
I do some research on it and found some says that the mangrove snake is dangerous to human while other sites regard this snake to be weakly poisonous. Im a beginner in snakes but is keen on buying this mangrove that caught my eyes.
I would like to know if this is a safe pet to handle(this snake is captive-bred and is quite tame). Also would like to find out whether it requires humidity and heat.
Can anyone out there with or without a mangrove snake kindly help me out? thanks
